This strategic partnership combines DeepVA’s composite AI platform with Viz One’s containerized architecture to deliver advanced media workflows for broadcasters worldwide.
DeepVA, a sovereign AI platform for the media and content industries, has announced a partnership with Vizrt, a global leader in real-time graphics, media-asset-management and live production solutions. This partnership will see advanced AI capabilities integrated into Vizrt’s enterprise Media Asset Management (MAM) system, Viz One.
This integration establishes DeepVA as an OEM supplier within Viz One, providing Vizrt customers with access to in-depth audiovisual understanding, automated metadata enrichment, the ability to train and use their own datasets, and intelligent metadata retrieval for workflows.
Transforming media workflows with Composite AI
Traditional LLM-only workflows struggle to understand video and images, but DeepVA solves this issue by combining various AI disciplines and enhancing prompt-based analysis with machine-readable, structured output. This turns visual content into consistent, reliable and regional data that is ready for automation and not limited to the knowledge of a single model.
This composite AI approach merges visual understanding, custom face or speaker identification with speech recognition and natural language processing, enabling broadcasters to:
“Ever felt like prompt-based AI gives you flexibility, but not quite the localization you need in your workflow? That’s where DeepVA comes in,” says Chief Partner Officer Johann Rückel. “By combining the agility of prompts with the predictability of JSON output and regional face recognition, we provide broadcasters with clear expectations, consistent results and in-depth regionalized metadata to optimize their workflows.” As well as this, Johann Rückel is also scouting and onboarding algorithms from research institutes, open-source, and third parties in order to supply industry-needed algorithms via a single API, to make AI as easy as possible for everyone.
Seamless integration with Viz One
“Media archives are only as useful as your ability to actually find and make use of what’s in there”, says Jochen Bergdolt, Head of MAM at Vizrt. “DeepVA helps Viz One customers to unlock their archive’s hidden value by automatically adding AI-derived metadata based on what’s happening in each asset. This saves countless hours compared to manually adding this context, and makes content much easier to find, re-use, and monetize. And thanks to DeepVA’s “sovereign AI” approach, they can be safe in the knowledge their valuable content and data does not leave their own infrastructure.”
The launch of Viz One 8 earlier this year marked the biggest update to Vizrt’s enterprise MAM in over a decade. Viz One’s new containerized architecture enables each service to scale, self-heal and update independently, thereby creating an ideal environment for AI-powered automation. A cloud-agnostic, containerized AI service such as DeepVA is a perfect fit for this environment.
Containerization also ensures flexible deployment options, whether on-premises, in the cloud or in hybrid environments. This makes it easy for broadcasters to integrate sovereign AI into mission-critical workflows and mitigate geopolitical risks.
Sovereign AI, built for broadcasters
A key differentiator of DeepVA is its sovereign AI approach. Broadcasters can deploy AI capabilities within their own secure environments, ensuring that no sensitive data leaves the organization. Combined with the flexibility to choose the best models for specific use cases, DeepVA empowers customers to innovate without being locked into a single AI provider. If a dedicated model is required, onboarding is straightforward.
